We enjoy some of the areas and others did not interest us. We liked the exhibit reviewing cowboys in movies. We did well on the trivia machines and watched the short film. Full review by K I

Maybe. I keep my 2 and 5 year old grandsons two days a week, and I probably wouldn’t take them there. My little one would have to be in a stroller, and the 5 year old would probably think it was boring, but hey, you never know with kids. Definitely not all day- couple hours max with kids. While they have some interesting displays, this is a fine art museum, no running wild or touching. But for a short time, I believe in introducing kids to Art, bored or not.
